Dobbo would plump for Daly Cherry Evans because we all know his close ties to the DCE camp and his management company.

Are you serious?

You're going to do that?

Mate, I've been... Okay, okay.

Has he ever been to Queensland?

Just misses out.

I mean, Sam Walker's interesting, right, because he's been in the system and he's been part of the extended squad.

He's been around the camp.

And if you're going to bring guys in, the purpose of bringing guys into camp and having them as part of the system is to groom them and to eventually play –

Origin, right?

So if you've decided you've moved on from DCE and you've brought Sam in and had him around the team and had him in the system, surely he's the next man up.

Logically, he's the next man up.

That's my take on it.

I mean, if you're not going to make that...

brave or courageous decision to go with Kalen, I think it has to be Sam Walker.

Because I think that's why you have emerging maroons camps.

That's why you have extended squads.

So those guys can get a feel for what it's like.

So when they're called upon, they can be ready to go.

And I reckon Sam's the sort of guy, well, I'd like to think he's the sort of guy who in that environment would blossom.
